Houses in multiple occupation licence

Changes that can affect a licence

A licence is granted based on the status of the property when the application was made.

You must tell us if circumstances change as this could mean that the licence is invalid. This could include:

  • a change in licence holder, managing agent or manager
  • if you change something internally within the property then you must apply for a variation in the licence
  • If the property is no longer a HMO, please notify us and the licence will be cancelled.

If you need to make a change to your current HMO licence please visit GOV.UK: Application to change a house in multiple occupation licence.
